antibiotic (noun, adjective): medicine used against bacteria (not for viruses). gene (noun): a small section of DNA that contains the instructions for making a specific protein. Proteins control the processes that occur in the body's cells. host (noun): an organism that another organism lives in or on (which can be helpful or harmful or the host). ▶ For example, the human gut hosts "good" bacteria that help humans with digestion. Cells inwhich disease-causing viruses live also act as hosts. mutation (noun): a change in an organism's genes, which gives the organism a new trait, such as the ability to resist a medicine. ▶Note: A mutation can be positive, negative, or neutral for an organism's survival. natural selection (noun): a process through which species change and survive over time; the main process of evolution.Natural selection occurs when
organisms develop new traits(through mutations) that better help them survive in their environment and reproduce (pass on a new trait to new generations). Since organisms with the new trait survive better than those without the trait, the species changes over time.
replicate (verb): to make an exact copy. specificity (noun): when medicines are only e?ective against a particular, specific organism or group of organisms (for example, antibiotics don't work against viruses). vaccine (noun): a substance that helps protect against certain diseases by helping the immune system recognize and destroy specific microbes.
